CURRENT VERSION: 0.5

The idea of Ships & Glory came about one night as I was attempting to find a brick building tactical game with simpler rules. A game that has a lower learning curve, less complexity, less game pieces, and maybe more accessible to younger players. I want to a version that is as much fun to build the ship as it is to learn the rules. If you are looking for a deeper (and extremely fun) tactical brick toy game, I would highly suggest Mobile Frame Zero: Intercept Orbit.

BUILD

BUILD.

Each player brings a squadron of 4-5 ships, all players should have the same number of ships:

1 Capital Ship

Capital ship is the largest ship of the squadron and is build on a 8x8 baseplate.

3 - 4 Fighters and/or Medic ships

Build your fighter or medic on a 4x4 baseplate.

Each ship have 4 stat categories:

Attack or Heal:

The attack point your Fighter will fire OR

The shield point your Medic will heal/add

Range:

The maximum range of your attack

Speed:

The maximum distance your ship can travel

Shield:

The defence point of your ship.

If your ship’s shield drops to 0 it is destroyed.

A medic ship or faction ability can heal any ship, other than itself, up to its shield stat.

Each ship’s stats is determined by the player with the exception of the capital ship. All capital ships have a set stats (see table below).

Custom Ship Stats VS. Ready-To-Play Ships

You can choose to distribute the points on your ships OR you can play the Jr. version where each player picks from 4 ready-to-play ships with set stats.

To distribute/customize your ship's stat points: Each ship has a total of 16 points that can be distributed in each stat and each stat category must have a minimum of 2 points and a maximum of 10 points.

Mark the stats of each ship on a paper. You may also place 1x1 bricks on the ship's baseplate to mark its shield points [in pictures shown].
